With the whole slew of religious nuts, conspiriacy theorists, and anarchists looking forward to a great time, a lot has been stirring up about June 6th. If something terribly bad DOES happen on 6-6-06, in which timezone will it have to be 6-6-06 in order for the zombie invasion/meteorite/satan rising from hell/etc. to happen?

Whatever you do, don't be born on 6/6/6. It'll stay with you forever.

I'd say the same one that experienced it in 1906-6-6.

Oh, wait...

I'm in New Zealand, so that makes me GMT+12. I'll get to see the world end first.

I'll stay up til midnight on here, and if the world ends I'll inform you guys in later timezones so you can get ready..

There has been an end-of-the-world prophecy for about every year since year 0. Nothing has ever happened. Although I'm hoping for zombie apocalypse.

I was born on Pearl Harbor Day, "A date that will live in Infamy" and look how I turned out! :D

My son's birthday is June 6th. He'll be 2. I plan to have a party and a cake with little plastic demons and extra large candles so we will have nice big flames.

What? We did the Spongebob theme last year......this is only fitting.

1906 June 6 - Durham & South Carolina Railroad operates its first revenue train, Bonsal to Durham, North Carolina

1906 June 6 - Cunard Line's RMS Lusitania is launched at the John Brown & Company shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland.

Now which one of these was the sign of the apocalypse?

it'll be GMT as we're +-0.... right in the middle (i think) *nods*

So if your kid is born on 06/06/06 and at 06:06:06 AM ... err ...

Well, as long as it's June 7th in Australia later today in -5GMT, then nothing will happen. As long as tomorrow comes there, we're fine.

he isn't named Damien by any chance, is he? ;)

The Evil Birthday Party. I like it. :) If I were nearby, I'd do an evil clown routine for you.

Speaking of which...I have a birthday party to entertain at on the sixth.... Hmm....

Haha....no. It's Victor. Although Damien was tossed around. I did however name my daughter Reagan.....not after the president, but after Linda Blairs character in the Exorcist.

Yeah. Zombie apocalypses are always fun.

Just so you're all aware, Scripture says nothing about the world ending on 6/6/06. It says the number of the beast (commonly believed to be the antichrist) will be 666. That doesn't mean that the world will begin to end on a day with a date similar to that.

Okay the religious nut is leaving now.

Oh my goodness! Are you serious!?

Someone's 6th birthday? or 66?

Bye religious nuts!!! [hehehhe i said nuts really loud heheehe]

:D

Eighth :(

Oh my goodness! Are you serious!?


Well it's either that or Spongebob again.......guess I'll toss a coin.

Isn't Spongebob supposedly gay and therefore a product of the devil anyway?

I was born on Pearl Harbor Day, "A date that will live in Infamy" and look how I turned out! :D

You mean December 7th? Me too! :eek:

I hope it isn't contagious... :(

I've heard somewhere that some religious scholars argue that Satan writes upside down, so wouldn't 9-9-09 be the real kicker?

You mean December 7th? Me too! :eek:

I hope it isn't contagious... :(

I hope it is. That'd certainly screw with preconceived theories about linear time, wouldn't it? Fun! :D

it will count as long as its still the 6th where the disaster happens. in the case of an asteroid striking the earth and wiping out all life, it counts as long as the point of impact is still on the 6th.


i heard that some women who are due to give birth on the 6th are asking to deliver ealier.

Iran refuses to back down about Uranium enrichment ... Isreal gets pissed off... they have nukes and are horribly irresponsible... and BAM!

The world generally gets buggered in four days.

Not that likely, and I'll be gutted if the prediction's accurate.

I have a sudden urge to find some mud.

Ah, but we're on BST now aren't we?

My old economics teacher was born on Pearl Harbor day. In 1941. He was (and he probably still is) crazy.

Best day to be born was 10/10/1968. See if you can work that one out.

The only thing bad that will hapen on the 6-6-06 is the world not ending... :D

I have a sudden urge to find some mud.

YAY! :D

I have a sudden urge to find some mud.
Exactly why the future isn't bright either. If you don't control those urges, tomorrow you'll be throwing stones....

If something bad does happen on 6/6/06, I will eat my hat.

Now that's a foolish thing to say...something bad is going to happen, as it does on every day. :p

lol, ok, then let me rephrase

If the world does end on 6/6/06, then I will eat my hat.

better? :p

Now that's a much safer bet, if for no other reason than the fact your hat would no longer exist. :p

6/6/06 is when my last exam paper is finished.

Of course the world is screwed.

I try to pass my driver's licence examen (again:p ) may God or Satan be with me:D

The world ended all those times, we just dont remember it. :rolleyes:

Okay the religious nut is leaving now.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's a mistranslation. The actual number of the beast is 616. . .which apparently means the apocalypse has already happened.

Apparently, the worst thing to happen on 6-6-06 is the release of a crappy remake horror film.

I don't know about the train, but the Lusitania sank. In Cobh harbour I believe.

You mean like 1666 where nothing bad at all happened?

And the earliest manuscript does say 616. However every other text from that era says 666. So do you go by the earliest reference or the majority? Is accuracy by consensus accuracy? Or is one source enough?
